"Jamie?" Jeff asked, running after his sister. "What was that noise? Why'd you bark?" Jeff stumbled to a stop. His brain felt like it was swimming in soup. His sister glanced behind at her brother. Her tongue slipped out, she started panting. Jeff cocked his head. Then he felt his throat starting to vibrate.
"Ruff!" Jeff barked. As he did, a metal tag jingled under his chin. Jeff shook his head, noting the continuing jingle. His sister was making the same noise. Jeff noticed something hanging around her neck, a pink metal tag. Jeff moved closer, sniffing at the tag. It was bone shaped, attached to a pink collar. Jeff had a blue one around his neck, his tag reading JEFF.
Jeff barked again. Jamie sniffed her brother before moving away. Jeff followed close behind, trying to process everything. They came up to the door, both humans waiting. Jamie barked again and began to wag her butt faster. Jeff could hear it now too, a dog! An owner was coming! Jeff started to get excited as well.
